Non-Tourist Tourism: Chasing Cornelia
Meet Cornelia. Cornelia who works for Hotel Heritage, a Brugge boutique hotel, was asked by Jaunted where a Brugge Diegan like herself might go when they weren't stuck at work.
Apparently, locals like to walk or cycle along the "green zone" which is the park like area that encircles the outside of the city. After that most locals get hungry--turns out Brugge Diegans are just like us! When hunger strikes, Cornelia and her friends often head to De Media Tea Room, which she describes as a "most excellent" lunch spot.
We then cut the small talk, and dropped the hard hitting questions on Cornelia, like where does she hang during the all too brief Brugge summer season. Her response? De Republiek Cafe, which is a bar slash restaurant slash cinema. The topper? According to Cornelia, De Republiek comes equipped with one of the nicest outdoor terrace settings in all of Brugge.

Basque in Hollywood
If a celebrity has their birthday party at a certain nightclub, it can count on an endless stream of customers for at least two years--nearly the entire lifespan of many clubs. Basque , in Hollywood, was the lucky host to Lindsay Lohan's birthday party last year, and the crowds haven't let up since.
It's perfectly central to the Hollywood nightlife scene, but the club isn't resting on its location laurels alone. They're serious about the Spanish theme, with mosaic tiles and dark wood everywhere you look, except behind the bar, where barely-clothed women doing burlesque routines add a little spice to the place. Who needs flair bartending when you've got jiggling ladies?
